NYC has multiple airports to choose from but JFK offers non-stop flights to/from Phoenix Sky Harbor. *Best sites for Flight Price Tracking: Skyscanner.com & Google Flights
Travel Note
There are multiple options for getting into the city from the airport with varying costs *NYC Taxi's and Ride Shares are the most convenient transportation option but come in at around $80 + tip each way from JFK to Manhattan. *An alternate option is taking the MTA Public Transportation (Air Train to the Subway) at a cost of $12.25 each way.
Hotel
Lodging anywhere in manhattan is great however we recommend looking in the Midtown area including Times Square, Grand Central Station, Chrysler Building, Empire State Building areas.
